The former Blues defender told BetStars when asked if he expects Morata to be sold: “I do yes.

“The problem is he left Real Madrid to get some games, and he went to Juventus and did quite well but again didn't play all the time.

“He's been disappointing for me, he's had one or two issues as well but Juventus may see the value in trying to get him back and Chelsea will be looking for another striker.

“He works hard and seems a good type of person, but it just hasn't worked out.

“When you have spent that kind of money, £60m or £70m, you expect to get a bit more, so I can't see it ending too well to be honest. The likes of Chelsea, you look where they can improve, and up top has got to be one of them.”

While Chelsea may be open to offers for Morata, they are reluctant to part with Belgian playmaker Hazard.

Dorigo added: “Real Madrid and Barcelona are the two teams outside of England that when they come calling, there is only one thing that is going to happen. Those two clubs are incredible, the passion is absolutely amazing.

“It's a difficult one, Hazard will probably think if Chelsea don't make the Champions League then he might start to look elsewhere. It's difficult when Real Madrid and Barcelona come calling.”

Dorigo said of the talk surrounding more managerial tinkering in west London: “I really like Antonio Conte, I have to say.

“He needed some backing in the transfer market though, because what he's seen is Manchester United spending a lot and obviously Manchester City improving in every position, whereas Chelsea's spending was disappointing.

“Morata hasn't really done it and Conte didn't get a lot of the key players he requested, so there were problems from the start.

“I think he's a really good manager, I like the way his teams play but he does need a certain type of player.

“There will be plenty of suitors who want Antonio Conte as manager, I hope Chelsea back him and give him some money to spend.”
